Wasn't quite sure where to ask the question in the title, or if this is even the right question to ask, but figured a Solarpunk community would be most likely to have the answers I'm looking for...

My reasoning is we are facing some global problems here, you know with all the climate change and whatnot; So we need global solutions for them; Therefore the obvious solution seems to be the United Nations 2.0, or League of Nations 3.0 if you will. Basically a global constitutional assembly, hopefully before it all devolves into total war again this time, or worse.

So I want to read up on what thought or maybe even activism there is out there specifically in this regard. Anything to read, recent or historic, you can recommend?

Any thoughts you want to share? Why can or can't this work? Am I being to naive here? Explain it Like I am 5 please!

Edit: Stickying some relevant "war reporting" from the comments to the post body, in a hopefully somewhat chronological order. Thanks for diving into the trenches everybody!

So the "and convicted felon" part of the screenshot that is highlighted was in the first sentence of the article about Donald Trump. After the jury verdict it was added and then removed again pretty much immediately several times over.

Then the article got editing restrictions and a warning about them (warning has been removed again):

During these restrictions there is a "RfC" (Request for Comments) thread held on the talk page of the article where anybody can voice their opinion on the matter:

Money quote:

There's a weird argument for **slight support**. Specifically because if we don't include it in the first paragraph somewhere, either the first sentence or in a new second sentence, there are going to be edit wars for the next 2-6 years. Guninvalid (talk) 22:01, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

There is a second battlefield going on in the infobox on the side (this has also been removed again at this point in time):

The article can apparently only be edited by certain more trusted users at the moment, and warnings about editing "contentious" parts have been added to the article source:

To summarise, here is a map of the status quo on the ground roughly a day after the jury verdict:

So I have tried to search this community, Lemmy in general, and the GitHub issues on LemmyNet/lemmy repo, but didn't immediately see anything discussing this.

It would be really cool if Lemmy would trigger Firefox's new translation icon in the address bar based on the browser/OS/Lemmy language as compared to the post/comment language.

So i.e. if my browser/OS language is English and the post is flagged German or contains comments that are flagged as German, the Firefox address bar should show the little translation beta icon in the address bar, because Firefox can translate between these two languages.

Bonus points if it doesn't offer German translations if I'm logged in and have set German as one of my languages in the Lemmy settings.

(by the way the dialogue always adds "Undetermined" regardless of if it being selected in the settings or not, not sure if that's intended)

Hope you guys can figure it out. Right now the Firefox button doesn't seem to pop up regardless of which Lemmy instance I visit and which language is set where, but it does appear for a lot of other websites.

And while I'm here, thank you for all you do for us users and the Fediverse/ActivityPub in general. It's much appreciated! :)

Context:

Somebody made a post promoting the proprietary search engine they are working on, claiming in the post that it "would make Stallman smile". In a comment below the post they said that they made the statement about Stallman to "drive engagement". The post was later removed for promoting proprietary software.

At the top is a screenshot from the modlog saying:

Removed Post We're building a search engine to compete with DuckDuckGo. No JS, no WASM, no spying. Just a statically generated results page.
reason: Comm rule 2: Don’t promote proprietary software

Below that is an image of Stallman smiling.

I ~~am sure~~ hope somebody™ already thought of this. Feel free to advertise your project here.
